Precision BioMEMS is seeking a hands‑on Equipment Engineer to serve as the primary technical owner for our micro‑electrical mechanical systems (MEMS) fabrication facility. This role is designed for an engineer who thrives in the cleanroom, focusing on the direct maintenance, troubleshooting, and hardware optimization of critical Fab equipment. You will be responsible for ensuring maximum uptime through technical mastery of vacuum systems, RF generators, and complex mechanical assemblies, ensuring all work meets rigorous ISO cleanroom standards, along with keeping all the facilities' equipment running properly.

This position will be based in our Addison, Texas office. We are unable to consider remote workers or individuals who are not currently based in the US and are not legally authorized to work in the US.

• Direct Hardware Support:
  Perform expert-level service, repair, and troubleshooting of complex mechanical, electrical, and pneumatic/hydraulic systems inside and outside the cleanroom.
• Tool Performance:
  Directly execute PM procedures and identify ways to increase tool uptime through Continuous Improvement programs.
• Installation & Modification:
  Lead the physical installation of new equipment and perform hardware modifications to improve process stability and performance.
• Diagnostics:
  Read and interpret complex schematics (PID, electrical, hydraulic) to diagnose root causes of tool downs quickly.
• Documentation:
  Log all technical actions and hardware changes in the CMMS to maintain an accurate "health record" for every tool.
• Spare Parts:
  Evaluate and test replacement parts to ensure compatibility and tool performance.
• 1 Month:
  Complete orientation and cleanroom integration. Shadow the maintenance team and begin hands‑on familiarization with critical tools .
• 6 Months:
  Assume primary technical ownership of one or two key tools. Perform routine PMs independently and utilize EZ-MES/FIIX to log technical data and hardware observations. Conduct a physical spare parts audit for assigned tools.
• 12 Months:
  Identify specific hardware failure points on critical tools and implement mechanical or electrical improvements. Review and refine PM procedures to be more effective based on hands‑on observations.
• 2 Years+:
  Serve as the internal Subject Matter Expert (SME) for the assigned tools, significantly reducing our reliance on external field service engineers.

• Education &
  
  Certifications:
  
  BS degree in a technical field (electronics, engineering, or related) or equivalent military training. Project Management Professional (PMP) certification is a plus.
• Experience:
  
  4+ years of hands‑on experience in maintenance, repair,…
